Something is moving in my iPhone 14 pro when i am shaking my phone and tilting it upside down. It feels like it is the battery that got loosen even my phone is new and doesn’t have any crash or drop yet.


I have also checked OIS by tilting my phone while camera is open and felt same thing.

This sounds like a physical issue with the iPhone that would need evaluation and servicing at your nearest Apple Store's Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Provider. Now you did state your iPhone is "new", even though the last time the iPhone was sold was September of 2023. It may be new to you, but this would indicate either a used iPhone, which likely occurred the damage, or a new but deteriorating iPhone in the box. You may also want to contact the original seller, which couldn't have been Apple.
